The reason for this is the construction on I-90. The machine traffic has been using Central Ave. and it is covered in dirt and likely new giant holes. However, that could be good news as Central will need to be repaved. Otherwise, what was 26 miles of a couple of small hills with one big one will now be 26 miles of hill repeats. Bring the pain!

Yup! So weird seeing myself!
In the video, when you looked around at about 32 mins, I felt that pain, lol!
I almost lost it at the beginning of lap 4, salt & dumping water on my head got me through. Evaporates so much faster skating than running; makes it hard to keep up with hydration.
